Technical Abstract

Detection of the rotation angle of a magnetic field using a magnetic sensor in which two sensor units are arranged at a predetermined angle with respect to each other is performed with a resolution of an angle smaller than 45° with a simple circuit configuration. A detection circuit is connectable to a magnetic sensor in which first and second sensor units are arranged at a predetermined angle with respect to each other, each sensor unit having a bridge circuit of magnetoresistance elements. The detection circuit includes a first comparison circuit that compares output signals of the first or second sensor unit, a second comparison circuit that compares an output signal of the first sensor unit with an output signal of second sensor unit, and a rotation angle calculation circuit that calculates a rotation angle of a magnetic field based on the comparison results of the first and second comparison circuits.
